GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Glass passivated, sensitive gate
thyristor in a plastic envelope, suitable
for surface mounting, intended for use
in general purpose switching and
phase control applications. This
device is intended to be interfaced
directly to microcontrollers, logic
integrated circuits and other low
power gate trigger circuits.

Although not recommended, off-state voltages up to 800V may be applied without damage, but the thyristor may
switch to the on-state. The rate of rise of current should not exceed 15 A/µs.
